Here's the place to discuss games with a science fiction or fantasy theme – board games, card games, LARPs, RPGs, online games, PC games, and games played on systems such as PlayStation, Wii, Xbox, etc.

My son spent the weekend with a friend from school. Originally it was just supposed to be overnight but on my way to pick him up the next day, he texted me and asked if he could stay longer. Well, I was 2 blocks away so I showed up anyway to talk about what he wanted rather they try to text it back and forth and they invited me in because they wanted to show off Rock Band. After a couple of songs, I notice that Roxanne by the Police is on the list. I say, 'Awsome. Love that song.' so his friend selects it because 'i can play that on expert'. Chris hands me the mic and says I should sing it but I resisted. Still, I couldn't help but sing along. After his friend Trey had demonstrated his mad guitar skillz, they restarted the song in Duo mode and handed me the mic. ..... "Dang, now I know where Chris gets his voice"

I scored a 100% and 1st place on my first try. ROFL. So, they wanted to trade up guitar players and I was made to sing it again. On expert settings, I scored a 100% and Flawless. LOL.

So, it was fun. I'm thinking once I get settled in Edmonton and have a few paychecks under my belt, I'll look for a Wii on ebay or something.

I love ROCKBAND!!! I either want to get an Xbox or a Wii for it, but i can't decide which one. Plus it's hard to decide when I have two really good friends from film who are on opposite opinions of it, even though one of them has both consoles! lol...in March i plan to get one!

Geek: slang term, noting individuals as "a peculiar or otherwise odd person, especially one who is perceived to be overly obsessed with one or more things including those of intellectuality, electronics, etc." Formerly, the term referred to a carnival performer often billed as a wild man whose act usually includes biting the head off a live chicken, bat, snake or bugs. The 1976 edition of the American Heritage Dictionary included only the definition regarding geek shows.

the interactive gaming that you can do with the Wii is its biggest draw card for me... I've played it at parties before and it's great fun... Don't worry mate it made perfect sense to me... I might just get all of them... eventually.

Life is fun, death is peaceful, it is usually the transition that is painful.....

Especially Mario Party and somehow i always turn it into a drinking game ....

Yeah I'm not lying about this, i get really wasted when i play the Wii, and i always choose Princess Peach and then i start mocking her to the point that i sound a lot like her and make her sound like a dirty whore... .... ... it is really hard to play those games with the consoles when drunk... i was in a car and was driving in circles and in the opposite way... but after that I was surprisingly doing well... actually when i drink and play Rockband i go from a 65% average (sober) to an 85-90% average.... and i can walk in a straight line! Wow... i really think I'm messed up... oh and i don't always drink when i play these consoles, even though it sounds like it...

Actually i do have friends with Playstation, i never found it that interesting... i like the Wii and the Xbox, i like them both... i just can't decide which to get.... first, lol.
